ABSTRACT
Background: pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL) are identified in 1 %
of patients who undergo abdominal computed tomography scans,
because it is difficult to discriminate clinically between benign
and malignant PCL. The PCL must be distinguished from inflammatory
pseudocysts, which can have a similar radiographic
appearance. The aim of this study was to review the incidence
of PCL during 10 years.
Methods: nineteen consecutive patients who underwent surgical
resection of a cystic lesion of the pancreas during a 10-year
period were reviewed.
Results: from 1998, 434 patients underwent to pancreatic surgery,
103 (25.75 %) resulted with neoplasm of the pancreas and
a PCL was diagnosed in 19 of them (18.44 %). They were more
common in women (
n = 15, 79 %). The pathologic diagnosis was
mucinous cystadenoma (
n = 6, 31.5 %) followed by serous cystadenoma
and solid cystic papilar tumor (
n = 4, 21 %). Mucinous
cystadenocarcinoma was diagnosed in a 77 year-old man and a
serous cystadenocarcinoma was diagnosed in a 53 years-old
woman; cystic degeneration of two insulinomas were diagnosed
in a 71 year-old woman and a 32 year-old man (5.26 %).
Conclusions: PCLs represent a spectrum of associated diseases.
The incidence of serous cystadenoma is lower in our experience.
